RE: Microsoft .NET Licensing

Someone inside Microsoft gives me a clear info about this:

to be clear, developers will get .NET My Services bits as part of SDK
for free if they subscribe MSDN.

1.5K/per app is for partner who wants to test/to be certified against a
live testing environment hosted by Microsoft.

The 10K fee is for the ASP/ISP partners who host web applications that
consume the .NET My Services hosted by Microsoft.

If Microsoft wants .Net to succeed, it should make developer access
free.  How
many Windows applications would there be today if every developer of
such an
application had to pay Microsoft $10,000 per year?

This should be of interest to some of the developers in this group.

Developers: What .Net will cost you

From the article:
   "For standard use, which Microsoft expects will involve the
majority of
users,
    Microsoft will charge $10,000 per year for using .Net My Services
and
$1,500
    per application."
